Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 350
In the back garden of Chaoyang Palace, today the spring breeze is gentle and the sun is shining. With the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers in the garden, the Yingying and swallows in the harem gathered in the Jiangxue Pavilion on the rockery to salute Minggong, the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Baosi, the queen.

According to Zhou etiquette, the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty is in charge of the empress, and under the empress are concubines, concubines, nobles, regulars, and talented people. Ever since Empress Jin committed suicide and fell from power, the empress seat in the harem has been vacant all the time. Only Concubine Jiang and Concubine Ge with higher status were left, and Lady Xue was tied for the position of nobleman with the three newly elected noblemen, but in less than half a year, among the three new young masters who entered the palace, two of them were Xiangxiaoyu. Died, the soul returned to the underworld, and the remaining Jing nobles were also banned in the cold palace because they were suspected of assassinating the queen, so although the harem Qunfang saluted the queen today, in fact, there are only three concubines with status. .

After kneeling down three times, the enthusiastic Ming Gong ordered his concubines to follow him into the plum garden of Jiangxue Pavilion, and a burst of fragrant fragrance came towards him immediately.

"Your Majesty is overjoyed! Thanks to the emperor's blessing, it's not yet the first month, and the plum blossoms of all colors are already in full bloom in the plum garden." At this time, the joyful palace lady stepped forward to give her a blessing as if picturesque, and reported in a soft voice.

"Well, this year's plum blossoms are blooming very well. Not only is the makeup light and elegant, but it also has a charming temperament. It seems that the weather in my great country will definitely be good this year." Ming Gong stroked his beard cheerfully and smiled slightly.

"This is all thanks to the great blessing of the king. The king has worked hard to govern and love the people, so even the plum blossoms in the plum garden have been touched." Concubine Ge behind Minggong hurriedly flattered him.

"What Sister Ge said is that this is auspiciousness from heaven, the king can't underestimate it." The Jiang family on the side also hurriedly agreed.

"It's just that I'm worried that the plum blossoms in the Imperial Plum Garden will wither early if they bloom. After all, plum blossoms are the most beautiful flower species, and they are more and more delicate. If the spring wind blows too hard this year, perhaps, within a few days, The widow will deal with the remnants of flowers." Minggong put his hands behind his back and looked at the concubine behind him with his eyes.

"Your majesty's words are serious. No matter how fierce the wind blows this year, how can it compare to the majesty of the emperor? Plum blossoms will not wither early." Concubine Jiang and Concubine Ge looked at each other in dismay.

"Your Majesty, today the concubine proposed to appreciate the flowers, which is a happy thing, why did he mention the unpleasant thing of falling flowers?" Bao Si next to Ming Gong frowned and reminded secretly.

"Yes, today is a beautiful day, so why bother to mention the unsightly things, dear friends, you can write poems and lyrics to cheer me up." Ming Gong snorted and smiled happily.

Concubine Jiang winked at Concubine Ge, and Concubine Ge immediately stepped forward to give her a blessing, and chant casually: "

Mei Xiang is all over the country, but the water dragon knows it.The first month is full of glory, and the dream is sobbing and red.

"Well, it's a good poem, but it's too sad." Ming Gong sighed.

"Your Majesty, let Xue'er recite a few words on behalf of Auntie." At this time, the laughing nobleman Xue came out laughing.

"With Xue'er here, it seems that there is still some fun in the Royal Plum Garden today, Xue'er, hurry up." Mingong said with a relaxed smile.

Xuegui rolled his eyes mischievously, and recited casually: "Zaomei needs to be scattered, and you should know yourself when you have pity. Chuntao is the door knocker, and Fanghuashui is a journey."

"Okay! Xue'er, the words are clear and playful." Ming Gong couldn't help smiling.

"Since your majesty praises Xue'er, then Xue'er has to make a request." The delighted Xue Gui asked Ming Gong charmingly while being complacent.

"You little girl, you dare to make an offer with the widow, tell me, as long as it is not too much, the widow will naturally agree to you." Minggong frowned.
